Christy
Yeah, we were just trying those new Oreos. The Selena Gomez Oreos. I gave him a big thumbs up.
Bob
Yeah, pretty good.
Christy
Christy did not like. I could barely tell the difference.
Chick
Well, I think I was saying I had just eaten some oatmeal that was pretty flavorful, and I don't know if.
Christy
That had anything to do with flavorful oatmeal.
Bob
She is right. Apple cinnamon or something like that.
Chick
Yeah, very good. I Kodiak brand I like very much.
Christy
But these are sodas. And where are these from, these.
Tom
Marks? Mike, Mark's son brought them to try. Yeah, Patrick, they're a.
Bob
An independent brand.
Tom
It is. It's Lester's Fixins.
Bob
Oh, I love the name Lester's.
Tom
And there's a picture of Lester on the. On the.
Bob
Hi, Lester looks like an affable chap.
Tom
Yeah. Yeah. This one's sweet corn made with pure cane sugar. Oh, and it's yellow. It's very yellow. There's lots of yellow dye.
Bob
Smell it from here.
Christy
It does. It does look like a urine sample. Yeah, very yellow. Okay. Who's.
Bob
It smells exactly like a can of corn where you open. So we're trying that first, the sweet corn. It tastes better than it smells. Yeah, it is.
Christy
It's delicious.
Tom
It is. It is.
Christy
It's like corn in the cob with fizz in it.
Chick
Yeah.
Tom
Yes.
Bob
It tastes like somebody poured cream soda into a can of corn.
Tom
Yeah.
Bob
And I'm going to set it aside.
Tom
Yes.
Christy
You don't like it?
Bob
It's not for me. No.
Tom
But cotton candy aftertaste, I would say almost like that's how sugary it is.
Bob
Yeah. There's no doubt that it's corn, though.
Christy
Yeah.
Bob
Boy. I mean, we're gonna see that when we poop.
Tom
You think so?
Christy
Hang on a second. I'm trying to process this. So. Okay, you're right.
Chick
How corny it is.
Christy
Yeah. Okay.
Tom
That's how corny it is.
Christy
And then is the. Is the idea of this to drink it on ice, I guess.
Tom
I don't know.
Christy
It's so odd, but it tastes great.
Tom
But a lot of sugar. When it's something like this and it's such a. A specific flavor, I always think, what is this would be a good mixer. What are we mixing this with to make a. A cocktail? Yeah. I don't know. Vodka problem A very Middle Eastern cocktail.
Christy
Potatoes, you could make a Mexican street corn cocktail. A little tequila.
Tom
You could. Ooh.
Christy
That'S because whenever. Whenever anyone asks me what the best thing I. I've eaten. No jokes, please. In the last decade, I always say I had. When I was down in Austin, I had this Mexican street corn, and it was incredible. And I always think about how good this that would be. Make a nice cocktail. This really is delicious.
Bob
But if it's all sugar, it's a lot of sugar. It's not bad. It's just not for me. I don't want to suggest that it's not good, but I think you've nailed it.
Christy
I think this would be great for some kind of a mixed drink.
Tom
Yeah, that's what I.
Bob
Should we try the bacon soda?
Tom
You can. Yeah.
Christy
Is this, Is this the same company?
Tom
Yeah. Lester's fixings again. And it's pure cane sugar now.
Bob
I don't smell bacon.
Christy
No, you're. You're exactly correct. I don't either. The first one, you. It smells just like a can of corn.
Bob
Yes, it does.
Tom
So with the can of corn, there is. There's yellow five, there's yellow six. There's a lot of obviously coloring in this. With this, there is a natural coloring. If you guys had to guess what it was to color this, what would you guess?
Bob
Beets.
Tom
Exactly. It's beat beet juice.
Bob
Okay.
Christy
Now are a lot of these colorings about to become illegal? These guys. Business.
Bob
Yeah. It's a good thing that's bad for the clothes.
Christy
So how does the.
Bob
I don't really know what that means.
Christy
But how does the bacon soda taste?
Bob
Let's find out.
Chick
No, thanks.
Christy
Wow.
Bob
They says it all here. I. Adorable. Oh, no, there is. I get some of the fat.

Tom
Yeah.
Christy

Tom
Darker parts of the bacon.
Christy
The corn may have ruined my palate.
Chick
Yeah, I can, I can taste.
Christy
What are you drinking?
Bob
It's coffee. Tastes just like coffee. Yeah.
Chick
House coffee.
Tom
It is. I don't know. Somehow, Somehow they have captured a very specific.
Bob
It's almost that charred, smoky kind of the, the. Yeah, it's fine. I again, I, I, I really like these small label brands and stuff like.
Christy
That, but yeah, you could use it with.
Chick
For Bloody Marys or something.
Tom
You could, you could, you could make a carbonated Bloody Mary.
Christy
I don't taste anything with that one.
Bob
There's not much to it.
Christy
The first one, if you'd given it to me blindfolded, I would go, corn. That one. I would go.
Bob
Yeah.
Christy
Not sure.
Bob
I don't think we'd guess it.
Christy
Weird. Soda pop.
Tom

Tom
Yeah, it's fine. It's.
Christy
Maybe you should. Who's a big boozer around here? Oscar, you drink the hearts.

Tom
No, don't.
Bob
Yeah, I'm gonna do a bacon corn soda.
Tom
I'm with you.
Bob

Tom
I'm gonna do it with you.
Bob
All right. I'm gonna try to keep a poker face first.
Tom

I thought you retired from sir mix. Was it? Who was you?
Bob
Who were you? Sir sir dude, the party night.
Christy
Yeah, I thought you retired from that.
Bob
I haven't.
Chick
Weird.
Bob
Sir dude, the party night hasn't retired per se. It just hasn't had the opportunity to show up any.
Christy
What are the regulations to become sir dude the party night?
Bob
I have to polish off a 12.
Christy
Pack of cans and then you put the. You put the 12 pack on your head.
Bob
That's right. And become sir dude, the party night. So if it's ever going to happen, 4th of July weekend is when it will, so will it be this year. I'll let you know.
Christy
What would it take for you to become Sir dude the party night. When we'll film it and we'll. I will interrogate you when you are at peak Sir Dudeness.
Bob
Have you met sir dude the intervention yet? A lot of fun showing up to that.
Christy
It would be like that drunk history show.
Bob
Right? Right. Boy. Yeah, I. Because the reason it could happen over July 4th weekend is because on Saturday or something, I could start at 11:00am yeah, right. But if we were to like. If I were to try to get sir dude here on a regular weekday morning.
Chick
Right.
Bob
Tough call.
Tom
Yeah.
Chick
You can't drink 12 beers in four hours.
Bob
Oh, yeah, that could be done. But do I want to? That's the thing.
Tom
You could wreck the rest of your day.
Bob
There was a time where I wanted to. Now I.
Christy
We could make arrangements for you to be limoed home, sir.
Bob
Dude would not go home. That limo would go to a bar.
Christy
At 10 o', clock, you'd be off on your way to a bar.
Bob
We would find him passed out in the field the next morning. Limo's going everywhere. Josh, where are you? When does the Emporium open up? Eleven. Josh, eleven. Where are you? Somewhere on the Dan Ryan.

Chick
Municipal.
Christy
That's your. That's your one word you can never do, right? I have several I can't do.
Chick
But students and parents watched in shock as two women began their performance while a young boy was invited to stand between them.
Christy
By the way, that should read. The guys were not in shock.
Chick
The moms were in shock.
Christy
Yeah.
Chick
Police responded to the scene and dispersed the gathering. The boy's mother told local media, quote, other parents organized various programs for the graduation ceremony. So I wanted ours to be more creative than theirs. She said, I hope this will be an unforgettable graduation gift for my son.

Bob
Oh, I see. What?
Christy
And by the way, it's what I read. It's a junior high school.
Chick
Yeah, that's what I say.
Bob
So you graduate, let's say. How old are you? I don't remember.
Tom
Yeah, 14.
Chick
Jimmy would have loved that, huh?
Christy
Yes. There would have been a third poll.
Bob
Will you allow me to get your son a stripper? I'm a very evolved parent. Perhaps.
Christy
Now, how would you feel if. If, say, a little league coach of 13 year olds took them to Hooters after a game?
Tom
I would have no feeling, you know?
Bob
That's a good question.
Tom
Yeah, I think that there's a. I think. I mean, I don't know. I know there's a lot of parents that would be mad about it, but I don't.
Christy
What's the new Hooters called?
Bob
Tilted Kilt and Twin Peaks.
Christy
Oh, Twin Peaks.

I think it's inappropriate and that's coming from a rad. Yeah, I'm just joking. It's inappropriate.
Christy
Yeah. Because this is kind of like that.
Tom
No, that's not.
Christy
Because, I mean, no. You eighth graders walking out and they see essentially strippers.
Bob
It's no good. You can't do it. But it's also awesome.
Tom
If you're the kids. Yes. Yeah.

Tom
Do you find that your kids are like. My son is very open with me.
Bob
We have. All of my kids are way too.
Tom
Open with things I would never have talked about with my dad. My.
Bob
I think that's a new thing, but I think it might be a. A sign of good.
Tom
Yeah.
Christy
But I shut them off instantly.
Bob
Yeah. There's. There are still things I won't talk. No. There's times where I'm like, yeah, I don't want to know this. Yeah. Oh, sure. Pass.
Christy
Yeah.
Bob
My thing is, I want to know. I would be most mad that I want to know which parents the narc calling the cops.
Tom
Yeah.
Bob
Like, that's who would make me mad.
Chick
Oh, the other family.
Bob
Yeah. I'm like, hey, which one of your friend's parents suck?
Tom
Yeah.
Bob
No. That's the worst part about being a parent is your kid's friend's parents.
Tom
Oh, that is the worst.
Bob
Like, sometimes all of my son's friends. Parents are awesome, but they aren't. Like, you're like, oh, great, I get to hang out with the orthodontist for two hours and hear about what orthodontist talk. Why can't you be friends with the dude whose dad's a hell's angel right.
Christy
Now? You just attended a graduation.
Bob
I did.
Christy
Did they applaud? Did they hold their applause till the end? This is my pick.
Bob
They did not announce to hold applause.
Christy
Oh, good.
Bob
They were loud. Every parent Every parent you could tell which ones like that was the first of their generation to graduate. And the guy doing the announcing waited for everything to die down before announcing the next class.
Christy
That's the way it should.
Tom
Is that a small. Did you have a small graduating class, though?
Bob
250.
Tom
Oh, that's not small. That's pretty normal.
Christy
When did this thing start about. Don't applaud for each kid. What?
Bob
But parrots were losing their minds. And I loved it. It was happening in the 90s. We weren't allowed to, but nobody did. It never worked.
Tom
It never worked.
Bob
They didn't even make the announcement. Okay. Yeah, that's probably good. Yeah.
Christy
Well, that's cool. Let's see.
Bob
Where are we.
Christy
Oh, wait a minute. We gotta do something else there. I did wanna do something real quick. We had that story earlier, Christy and I forget. The name of the scientist was Dr. Sniffin.
Chick
Sarah Siffin. Sniffing.
